Well
this thing should not be discussed with emotions
as corolla owners dont like civic
and civic owners dont like corollas
For that You have to compare the facts
becasue most of the guys here compare the cars race wise and thats not very meture
BEcause every thing is not about racing
Value for money , Build , Resale , Consumption ,Depriciation , PArts
its factors like these which make the car to be decided whether it is good or Bad
Corolla and civic before 2001 were producing very good cars which can easily be said that compared with the same models of EU countries
Corolla 96 2.od and 1.6Gli are very big hits and they are much better then latest models of corolla
On the other hand
compare 96 civic which was an award winner with the 2004 civic
latest civic is just horrible
construction wise and strength wise
well i am not a civic or a honda lover
but if compare all time compatibility
its like this
1 civic 96
2 corolla 2D
3 corolla 1.6 gli
new cars specially Se saloon
well i have seen Se in canada and in pAK
huge difference in every thing
